Yo people. Thanks for reviewing and stuff. Also, I find it ironic that this chapter is chapter 13. Anyway, read and review! I hope I can get up to 200 reviews!

"No! No! Shane!" Mitchie called out, trying to grab his stretcher but two nurses held her back and pulled her away.

"I'm sorry ma'am but we can't have anyone in the ER while surgery is in process."

Mitchie sniffled and calmed down. She stuttered out, "O-o-okay." The nurses nodded when they were sure that she had calmed down. "C-can I s-see him la-later wh-when he's o-out?"

"Are you family of Shane Gray?"

At this moment, Kenny chose to run up to Mitchie and attached himself to her. The nurses and especially Mitchie were startled by the sudden outburst appearance of the young boy. "She's not family but I am. And I want her here." Kenny put up his practiced signature pout and the nurses were helpless against it. Mitchie was extremely impressed. That kid could really out do himself.

"Okay, she can visit when Mr. Gray is out. Who are you two anyway?" Both nurses recognized Shane from Connect Three but not Mitchie or Kenny.

"I'm Mitchie, Shane's girlfriend. This is Kenny, the Grays' youngest brother. He's not really part of the band."

The female nurse's face lit up in realization. "Oh yeah. I remember you two from that concert last week. You're truly a wonderful singer. And you Kenny. My daughter loves you. Can I have both your autographs?"

Both nodded and signed the paper she handed them but Kenny was surprised. "Your daughter loves me, not my brothers? Me? The nine-year-old little brother? And you're asking for my autograph?"

The female nurse nodded. "Yeah, my eight-year-old daughter loves you completely. She also thought it was pretty funny and cool when she saw you push Nate in the pool from your tree house."

Kenny's jaw hung loose. "She saw that?"

"Yes but no, she's not a stalker. She likes to run for exercise and I guess your house is on her route, which means, you live near us. That's pretty cool."

"Wow," was all Mitchie could say. Kenny's ears perked up (not that he wasn't listening but he had an idea. It happens often, don't ask).

"Can I meet your daughter?" Kenny asked as he walked away with the female nurse. The other nurse, a male, just shrugged and walked away to do other work. Now Mitchie was alone. She didn't know that the others were there so she thought she was.

"Awkward," Mitchie muttered. She sat down in one of the hard, blue connected chairs. She kicked a nearby black pen that was on the ground and sighed. "It's not funny when Shane's not around."

Mitchie still didn't know the others were there. They were watching from around a hallway and when they turned around, they all exchanged worried glances. Something needed to be done about Mitchie and they were the ones who needed to do it.

"What's she doing?" Tess asked Barron as she entered the hospital. It was Monday already but Mitchie decided not to go to school. In fact, Mitchie stayed at the hospital the whole weekend. Her parents knew where she was thanks to the Grays and asked to keep an eye on her. Mitchie stayed in the waiting room the whole weekend. The only times she left her spot were when she had to go to the bathroom or hunger was bugging her. "Now what's she doing?"

Mitchie turned around to grab her songbook. She also grabbed her guitar and her stuff and stood up. She went to the receptionist with her stuff. The receptionist kindly gave her the info she wanted and Mitchie thanked her. She went into Shane's room unknowingly being followed by Barron and Sander who were ordered by Tess. Caitlyn tagged along so she could keep an eye on her best friend.

Mitchie pulled up a chair next to Shane's bed and for once, was thankful Shane was still knocked out. He was given an anesthetic earlier. She started strumming a few chords before breaking into song.

Spitting fire back and forth now
Times have changed in just a few months
Neighbors complaining from the fights and
Why can't things be the same
And maybe I'm just a little bit cautious
Of what I'm gonna say
When I tell you I can't live this way.
But I don't know what to expect from someone who's so insane

Why can't I get through the night
Without another fight
I'm tired of the hurting
Is it really worth it?
Am I all alone again?
Cause I am kinda feeling like I'm screaming
With my mouth shut
When it's really open.

The only noises in my head
Are consumed of your voice
From all the pain and hatred
How long can you kick somebody down
Before a foot breaks?

And why can't I get through the night
Without another fight
I'm tired of the hurting
Is it really worth it?
Am I all alone again 'cause
I am kinda feeling like I'm screaming
With my mouth shut when it's really open.

And I knew that you would fabricate
This situation just for
The sake of your need for attention
And I'm sick of always being the one
To always break down, always melt down
In the end, oh no,
And maybe this time
It's a sign that independence and I
Are finally catching on
I don't need you to rely on.

And why can't I get through the night
Without another fight I'm tired of the hurting
Is it really worth it?
Am I all alone again 'cause
I am kinda feeling like I'm screaming
With my mouth shut
When it's really open.
Spitting fire back and forth now
Times have changed in just a few months.

Mitchie finished and stood up. She placed her guitar down and kissed Shane on the lips for almost a minute before pulling away. When she started gathering her things, Barron and Sander hid behind a laundry basket near Shane's door. They still watched her as she picked up her stuff. Mitchie walked to the door and before she turned away out of his life, she said, and unintentionally clear enough for Barron and Sander,

"I love you Shane."

After Mitchie left Shane's room, Barron and Sander ran into Jason's room as fast as they could, startling everyone inside. Caitlyn slowly followed, not wanting to look like a total idiot like the other two. Tess immediately went to them, asking, "Well?"

Barron said between pants, "She left. She sang a new song to Shane while he was asleep and left."

"She didn't say anything else but 'I love you, Shane,'" Sander continued.

"What?" everyone else in the room exclaimed.

"Yeah, these bozos were right," Caitlyn said as she casually strolled in. "She left without another word towards us."

"OH MY FUCKING GOD!!" Nate and Kenny took one glance at each other before racing down the halls towards Shane's room. They were quickly followed by Mr. and Mrs. Gray, Tess, and Caitlyn. Barron and Sander decided to sit this one out. "Where is she? Where's Mitchie?" Shane asked frantically.

Kenny gave him a sympathetic look before saying, "Mitchie, she— Mitchie left. She came to see you, she sang you a song, and then kissed you and ran away."

"What? I need to, ugh!" Shane groaned as he placed his hand where his gash was healing It felt like hell. "Damn it!" Shane immediately regretted what he said though when he saw Kenny's frightened figure. Shane's facial expression became softer. "Oh, K.G. I'm sorry for erupting so quickly and loudly."

"It's okay." Kenny walked up to Shane's bed and pulled Shane into a brotherly hug. Once they pulled back, Kenny pulled a chair up to Shane's bedside and rested his head on Shane's lap. Shane stroked some of Kenny's soft brown locks.

"So what do we do?"

"I don't think that we can or should do anything," Caitlyn stated bluntly. "Mitchie obviously wants time to think so why don't we give her some. She'll come back sooner or later."

Shane looked down and hoped Caitlyn was right. He wanted Mitchie to come home as soon as possible.

A month later, a new girl came walking in the school. Everything she was wearing was black. Basically, she had a punk look going on. The whole school was confused but the sight of punk girl. She also had some pink highlights in her hair and looked kinda emo. Only seven students recognized her immediately but none of them were the heartbroken Shane.

Yeah, Shane hadn't gotten over Mitchie. He was back to being dark and almost angry or depressed all the time. The Connect Three band had to cancel some concerts and interviews because of his depressed state. His parents, the band, and especially his brothers were trying to cheer him up but failed miserably. Shane just couldn't let go of Mitchie.

"It's totally her," Tess whispered to her table. Other tables were also whispering about the new girl but they couldn't recognize her.

"She's definitely back," Barron said.

"But in full black," Sander rhymed/continued.

Shane lifted his head from his arms. "Who is back?" he asked, slightly annoyed that he didn't know.

Everyone at the table stared at him in shock, realizing he didn't know. Caitlyn spoke up but in low tone, "Mitchie is back but there is definitely something up with her."

Shane looked at the new Mitchie in disbelief. His Mitchie was back but she was completely different. She looked like she had a dark rain cloud over her where ever she went. Shane just continued to state at her like everyone else but unlike them, he wanted to know what was up and wanted to help.

Ooh, what's up with Mitchie? Want to know? Ha, I'm gonna make you wait. Yes, I'm this evil. And yeah, the beginning was pretty much pointless, I just felt like adding something.

Also, about the Burn Notice story, I need people to audition for either Joe/Shane's girlfriend or Nate or Jason (I need to figure out which one of the two). If you don't know what I'm talking about, read the bottom summary of Chapter 12. If you want to be Joe or Nate/Jason's girlfriend, just give me the following things in a PM or something:

Name
Personality
What you'd wear
Age
Height
One or two interesting facts about yourself

If I choose you, these things will be mentioned. Same thing applies if you want to be a client that Joe/Shane does a job for.

You know what to do. I hope I can get my reviews to reach 200!

Ja ne.
